Breathe
Let the waves just crash, right over me
I lost my air, but I learned how to breathe
I spent way too long convincing myself it was okay
But I couldn't hold back the floodgates
I was the fire, was the rain
Couldn't take a second just to figure it out
So I kept on burying my feelings down
I was so quick to point the blame
Couldn't listen to what my heart had to say
It was a pounding in my lungs that I couldn't escape
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
How to breathe
Falling fast but I grew brand new wings
Caught the wind and for the first time I was free
I like the air up here, doesn't feel like my lungs have to scream
The thought of you grows away from the thought of me
I was the fire, was the rain
Couldn't take a second just to figure it out
So I kept on burying my feelings down
I was so quick to point the blame
Couldn't listen to what my heart had to say
It was a pounding in my lungs that I couldn't escape
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
How to breathe
I couldn't love you the way you loved me
And it was so suffocating
I'm sorry it ended that way
But thank God cause I'm finding me
I'm the fire, I'm the rain
Had to take a second just to figure it out
And I stopped burying my feelings down
I'm glad to take the blame
Had to listen to what my heart had to say
It was a pounding in my lungs that I couldn't escape
I, I, I learned how to breathe
I, I, I learned how to breathe
How to breathe
Let the waves just crash right over me
Lost my air, but I learned how to breathe
I lost my air, but I learned how to breathe
I spent way too long convincing myself it was okay
But I couldn't hold back the floodgates
I was the fire, was the rain
Couldn't take a second just to figure it out
So I kept on burying my feelings down
I was so quick to point the blame
Couldn't listen to what my heart had to say
It was a pounding in my lungs that I couldn't escape
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
How to breathe
Falling fast but I grew brand new wings
Caught the wind and for the first time I was free
I like the air up here, doesn't feel like my lungs have to scream
The thought of you grows away from the thought of me
I was the fire, was the rain
Couldn't take a second just to figure it out
So I kept on burying my feelings down
I was so quick to point the blame
Couldn't listen to what my heart had to say
It was a pounding in my lungs that I couldn't escape
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
I, I, had to learn how to breathe
How to breathe
I couldn't love you the way you loved me
And it was so suffocating
I'm sorry it ended that way
But thank God cause I'm finding me
I'm the fire, I'm the rain
Had to take a second just to figure it out
And I stopped burying my feelings down
I'm glad to take the blame
Had to listen to what my heart had to say
It was a pounding in my lungs that I couldn't escape
I, I, I learned how to breathe
I, I, I learned how to breathe
How to breathe
Let the waves just crash right over me
Lost my air, but I learned how to breathe
